# Home Assistant
Home automation software.
## Installation
### Docker
1. Run the container to set up the local filesystem.
2. Modify the created config file, in `config/configuration.yaml` to allow the traefik proxy, or generally everything on the local network. NOTE: Traefik breaks homeassistant, needs to be over local network for now.
```
# Configure HTTP settings
http:
use_x_forwarded_for: true
trusted_proxies:
- 192.168.96.0/24
```
Optionally, set the log level
```
# Configure logging
logger:
default: debug
logs:
homeassistant.core: debug
homeassistant.components: info
homeassistant.components.mqtt: debug
```
Note these snippets should go above the `automation` line.
`docker compose down && docker system prune -f && docker compose build && docker compose up -d && docker logs -f homeassistant`
### Home Assistant Setup
1. Set up devices/smart lights according to manufacturer instructions to get them on the local network.
2. Settings > Devices & Services > Add Integration
3. For my WiZ light, the automatic scan did not find it. I had to manually use nmap to find it on the network and enter the IP.
```
nmap -sn 192.168.1.xxx/24 (adjust for your local network)
```
### Home Assistant configuration
#### Automation
1. Navigate to Settings > Automations & Scenes > Create Automation
2. Configure based on time, location, or other triggers.
### Issues
1. Bad Proxy
```
2025-03-15 09:13:37.969 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.http.forwarded] Received X-Forwarded-For header from an untrusted proxy 172.18.0.2
```
Homeassistant container is receiving request from the docker proxy network, which it doesn't know about. Add the local proxy so that the container knows that it is ok.
```
http:
trusted_proxies:
...
- 172.18.0.2
```
If it doesnt take from the config manually edit it in the container.
